42 days left

Well the end is nearer…

My companion is ending his mission today. I will now be receiving my new
companion.

THE LAST COMPANION OF MY MISSION!!!!!!

This last month I am just going to have to put all of my effort in the work so
that I can have a great last month of my mission. It is so hard to believe that
I am already in the last month of my mission. I feel like I am just getting
closer and closer to jumping off the slough box cliff again and this time, just
like last time, I am a little bit timid and nervous. I guess that’s what I
should feel.

I guess I will be the first to admit that these last three months have been a
little bit difficult. It hasn’t been difficult because I haven’t been having
success, it is because I have had problems with my companion the entire time. I
guess that’s just the way things go. I hope that my new companion will help me
out a lot this last month. The companion that is going home right now at the
end of our time together we finally were starting to get along. I guess there
are sometimes in the mission when the lesson is hidden behind the leaves. I
know that I have had the opportunity to teach and to help a lot of people out
here in the mission, but I still know that the person that I have helped the
most is well… Myself.

Here begins the last 6 weeks of my mission…. I don’t know if anyone is counting
but that means I have 1 month and a half… 42 days left, or in other words 1008
hours left, or in smaller still 60480 minutes or just for kicks 3628800
seconds. Ha, ha, ha no I am not “trunkie!!!!!!!”

I have to look at it like a big giant number so that I don’t start to slack off.
I need to work hard all the way to the
last day. I feel like I am trying to give myself a pep talk, and to be honest ,it
is working. I think writing to you all at home has given me a better
understanding of patience and love for those that I miss the most.

I feel like my mind right now is scattered about like Easter eggs on Easter
Sunday. I am having a hard time concentrating on what I am writing because I
have a lot of things that I need to do today.
I missed your letter today I am sure that you all just had a rough day
yesterday or something like that…. But don’t worry I know that you all love
me.
